One of my 5 year old's favorite parts is the page of the baby in the womb, surrounded by amniotic fluid. It's so cool to have an actual bubble of water to show the baby within the amniotic sac!
There's a touch-and-feel panel with different textures which is really interesting to run our fingers through.
There is even a transparent page that shows the veins and arteries in the blood system. Geeking out a little and explaining to the kids that arteries contain oxygen-rich blood which is bright red, and veins contain blood with less oxygen which looks dark red. In books and drawings, arteries and veins are colored differently as red and blue for distinction.
As for me, I like the page where it describes the digestive system, how food changes its state and moves along till it becomes poop. The interactive features are really well thought out!
